Second Grid@Asia Workshop Grid Technologiesand International Co-operation
OUTLINE • EU Grid Research Strategy • Objectives for International Co-operation • EU Grid vision towards SOKU • IST Call 5 results on Grid Research • IST Call 6 on EU-China International Co-operation • Conclusions
TechnologyPlatform European Research Area Research &Development Grid Strategy towards the Lisbon Objectives • Coordination of National Programmes • Opening-up of National Programmes • International cooperation (CHINA, …) • Build critical mass • Derive standardisation strategy • Leadership • Competitiveness • Addressing standardization, regulation, … • Innovation framework • Leveraging additional investments • Developing new methods, tools, systems and services • Advance excellence and know-how • Long-term and business-driven R&D • Integration – structuring - standardisation
Networked European Software and Services Initiative A European Technology Platform for SW, Grids & e-Services Mission:Develop a visionary strategy for Software and Services driven by a common European Research Agenda where innovation and business strengths are reinforced launched in Brussels on 7 September 2005 www.nessi-europe.com
Objectives for International Co-operation in ICT • Support economic growth and promotion of European ICT industry through • Co-operation on technologies, addressing issues like interoperability & standardisation • Promotion of EU compatible regulatory approaches with INCO countries • Enable European researchers and industrialists to share knowledge, technology, expertise and skills with INCO countries: • Framework Programmes • Address world-scale issues of an emerging global information and knowledge society: • As identified in the World Summit on Information Society • Prepare medium and long-term partnerships of mutual benefit in research and industry
Information Society Dialogues Addressing policy, regulatory and research aspects between EU and: • Industrialized countries: USA , Japan • Emerging economies: Brazil, China, India • In future: Russia, South Africa Neighbourhood dialogues and regional co-operation : • Euromed countries, Balkans, LAC, SEA • ACP countries (in future)
Next Generation Grids Report 2003: Vision NGG1 “Next Generation Grid(s) - European Grid Research 2005 - 2010”, June 2003 Simplification Abstraction NextGenerationGrids • End-user empowerment • Life-support to business processes Software Vision End-User Vision • Continuously changing requirements • Grid services development environments Architectural Vision • Societal behaviour (millions of self-organising nodes) • Computational semantics, ontologies, meta-descriptions • Pervasive virtual organisations Virtualization
Service-Oriented Knowledge Utility (SOKU) The architecture comprises serviceswhich may be instantiated and assembled dynamically. Hence, the structure, behaviour and location of software is changing at run-time. A utilityprovides immediately useable services with established functionality, performance and dependability. Emphasis is on user needs and issues such as trust and security. Services are knowledge-assisted (‘semantic’) to facilitate automation and advanced functionality. Knowledge technologies enable the delivery of high level services to the user.
